They will really stop your bike but front suspension dive can be severe and they pull to the right on hard braking - something to get used to, unless you opt for the new brake with anti dive which should cure the above issues. You won't get the brake fade that is typical of inboard hydraulic Lambretta brakes.

He's after an inboard, I don't think you get the diving problems with them. Inboards with hydraulics work well but none hydraulic they're not much better than drums.

Mr. Vaginaspeed, check out the standard scoots forum thread, as various comments from other people there, raw photos, etc. You can add the hyd conversion for them too, if wanting more braking power. No mods needed.

Kevo, the hyd. disc wouldn't pull to the right on hard braking unless misaligned or link issues, so check that. Either that or I've never gone that fast ;) If because a single disc and at extreme speeds, then that is common to all single disc kits. Again, I've never noticed it though. Dive is going to happen on any regular disc kits but, as Corrado mentioned, our anti-dive is available and you could add that on to your old kit.

Hope it helps.

Randall, the pull to the right happened under emergency braking. It is a very aggressive brake so only a very light pressure is required to stop the bike. The scooter in questiion has non uprated springs but I've a new fork rebuild kit with new links and progressive springs but I'd like to buy the anti dive kit as an add on as well, could you pm me a link to it please? Thank you.
